Except that we do know things. But it's just different layers of whatever it is, the subject of one stage becomes the object of the next stage

I reckon as long as you intend to see/feel the truth then it will reveal itself to you, its attachment to it, the minds need for rational cognition of the truth that keeps you from full realisation of truth, you perceive the truth as external from you, you are the unbounded truth always.
Rational thought is great we need it, but the mind is the wall between you and the full truth, the only question is can you handle it? 
The biggest illusion is the universe is separate from you, all this space, is you, you are nothing, yet you are everything!

Some parts of truth you can figure out, and some parts of figuring out those truths entail realizing that you will never really know.

asking questions will never get you closer to anything, you will just run in circles.

dubiousness Dubious compound it is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong. A penalty for possession of a drug/plant should not be more damaging than the drug/plant itself.

not always true i think. it depends on your relationship to your question. asking questions to discover truth is a perfectly natural human drive and without an attachment to the questions i.e. emotional attachment, answers and clarity will slowly find their way.

i agree with this. what i meant was there are abstract questions ("what is the meaning of life?/what is the sound of one hand clapping?") and then there are simple questions ("what's for dinner?/where's the remote?").
an interesting exercise is to give the answer first and then trying to find a question to it that suits it the best for you. that way you can easily see the relativity of it all.
